Looks like someone who's been abandoned on a deserted island for months then was rescued and went back to work at the office immediately after.

Why because he's not pudgy? He doesn't look starved, just lean and tan like a dustbowl era farmer.

I'm sure 100% of those students gave a poo poo or even knew why they were outside.

Just kill all millennials already

quote:

As the chart below shows, in October the age group that accounted for virtually all total job gains was workers aged 55 and over. They added some 378K jobs in the past month, representing virtually the entire increase in payrolls. And more troubling: workers aged 25-54 actually declined by 35,000, with males in this age group tumbling by 119,000!

I just couldn't imagine working in an open air office or what ever they call these places. When I'm working on a complex problem I want to be left the hell alone, I wouldn't be able to do nearly as good of a job with people bouncing around on toys and poo poo while I'm trying to figure something out.

i work in an open office, 90% of the time it's not a problem but the other 10% when it's crunch time you do wish they'd go away for a bit

67. Find a way to do what you love, even if it doesn't pay well. Don't do that thing all the time, though.
You're not going to change the world, but you can change the part of the world where you are.
There is no person, no movement, no religion, no organization that is your perfect match and will never disappoint you. That's OK. You can still believe and you can still work toward something wonderful, though imperfect.
Ditch the cynicism of your 20s for the wonder of your single digits as fast as you can. Seek beauty and wonder. When you find it, share it.

My fave credit card trick is that I got an Amazon Visa card, which gives you 1-3% back in Amazon credit, depending on where you spend it. I use it to pay all of my $2k-ish in monthly bills, pay it off every month, and spend the free amazon money as I please as "entertainment." Great for the budget.

Also, I was born in '71 and I don't find an entire generation of whiners to be amusing.

literally every credit cards gives you a deal like this except you can pick different things. for some cards, it's 1-3% cash back. on others, it's skymiles that work out to the same value.
